Key Points

The process converts CO2 into both CO and ethylene glycol, enhancing carbon utilization efficiency.
Key products include ethylene glycol and CO, indicating potential for valuable chemical synthesis.
Electrochemical conversion occurs in alkaline media, boosting the reaction rates and overall process efficacy.
This method supports carbon capture initiatives, implying significant implications for sustainable chemical production.

Implication

Electrochemical conversion achieves CO production alongside ethylene glycol, suggesting advances in carbon capture.

Abstract

Electrochemical conversion of CO2 into CO, ethylene, and other valuable chemicals is a promising method for carbon capture and utilisation. However, when carried out in an alkaline or neutral media,...
